Hi everyone,
I am worried that I might have a transmission gear problem that is creating noises that has me worried.
This DOES NOT seem to be the typical whine that everyone talks about or has.
This is a noise that happens regardless of speed (even lugging bike) in 2, 3, 4 , 5 gear ,, but not first gear (no matter the speed in first gear). Go same speed in second gear and the noise is there.
The best way I can describe the sound is a rubbing whirring noise with the odd sound that seems to be like a gear skipping.
However ,, if I am cruising down the road and I pull in the clutch, the noise goes away ,, let the clutch out ,, noise comes back.
Could this be the clutch basket even though this noise does not happen in first gear??
Has anyone had any transmission issues with the second generation royal star?
I am nervously awaiting the Dealer feedback as they have my bike to see if they can find the problem
Thank you in advance.
Stuart
